They're always smiling and friendly. They joke with customers and the pharmacist can answer any question you have.

I know it's my fault, but my experience was upsetting. They close at 1 on Saturday. I showed up at 1:02. I rang the doorbell; an employee looked at me and didn't say a word. I really needed my medicine today. I will now be without them until the holiday weekend is over.

I adore this little place. They have suzy zoo items. For the parents out there that love the little characters this place has the baby books ect... One of my oldest friends and her sisters work here. Family friendly place folks! The pharmacist is down to earth and really knows his patients. They have a drive thru for the lazy days. I go in just to buy all the little cute things anyway. This is the first pharmacy I can say I have seen customers come through drive thru on their bicycles, walking, four wheelers, Skateboards, and a horse!!!!!
